Airbyte JSON

Airbyte is a data integration platform for ELT pipelines from APIs, databases & files to warehouses & lakes. It has the largest catalog of ELT connectors to data warehouses and databases.

This covers how to load any source from Airbyte into a local JSON file that can be read in as a document

Prereqs: Have docker desktop installed

Steps:

  1. Clone Airbyte from GitHub - git clone https://github.com/airbytehq/airbyte.git

  2. Switch into Airbyte directory - cd airbyte

  3. Start Airbyte - docker compose up

  4. In your browser, just visit http://localhost:8000. You will be asked for a username and password. By default, that’s username airbyte and password password.

  5. Setup any source you wish.

  6. Set destination as Local JSON, with specified destination path - lets say /json_data. Set up manual sync.

  7. Run the connection.

  8. To see what files are create, you can navigate to: file:///tmp/airbyte_local

  9. Find your data and copy path. That path should be saved in the file variable below. It should start with /tmp/airbyte_local

from langchain.document_loaders import AirbyteJSONLoader
!ls /tmp/airbyte_local/json_data/
_airbyte_raw_pokemon.jsonl
loader = AirbyteJSONLoader("/tmp/airbyte_local/json_data/_airbyte_raw_pokemon.jsonl")
data = loader.load()
print(data[0].page_content[:500])
